I would think that there would be some process to require those with a claim to either come forward or abandon their claim, without any need for a buyer whatsoever.
This. Despite the Power To The People headline, this is something he's forced to do under Hawaiian law if he wants to have any hope of a clear title to the property.
No, if 100% of the population had college degrees and those degrees actually helped them work better, that would increase each person's economic productivity.
This is a pretty common fallacy. Even if you have a degree that's reasonably useful there are only so many jobs in which you'll benefit from having it. That is, employers only need so many electrical engineers, and your engineering degree will not add to anybody's productivity if you've been hired to push a broom.
This. If you can hire a local for $90k, you're not going to pay $100k to bring someone in from another country unless he has a skill you can't find locally. And by that I mean you actually can't find, not the wink-wink-cover-your-eyes can't find employers are doing today.
Beyond that, having a credential only gives you an advantage in the job market if other people don't have it. It should be obvious if 100% of the population had college degrees total compensation wouldn't go up one penny, and your degree would be completely worthless.
Anyone who believes that a Trump presidency isn't a larger disaster than a Clinton presidency has clearly skipped their meds and their opinions can safely be ignored, although they cannot safely be ignored as they are probably some kind of spectacular nutjob and you shouldn't turn your back on them, even for a second.
Yeah, yeah, anyone who disagrees with you is a nutjob. All 100 million plus. Have you ever stepped back and listened to yourself?
True, though it will work out better for them than the alternative.
You seem to view elections as a kind of a competition sports game, but it isn't.
You seem to build elaborate fantasies about other people who leave comments. How about we stick to what's written?
It sets policies for the next few years, hence voting out of spite is stupid. And given that Trump's policies will harm his voters way more than they will harm prosperous urbanites - and seriously, worst thing that might happen to a typical well-off city dweller during Trump years would be living with the thought that the president of their country is a goddamn clown - a hillbilly having voted for Trump out of spite is, in fact, double stupid and pretty much proves GP's point.
Well, I suppose that's one way you can look at it, if you think that's the case. Personally, I think Hillary Clinton would have been a disaster of epic proportions. Trump wasn't my first choice for the Republican nomination by a long shot, but by election day he was the second worst. I don't think anyone voted for Trump out of spite, though you could hardly blame them if they did, since the attitude that seems to be permeating the government-media-academia axis holds that people who don't live within a few hundred miles of an ocean are somehow both safe to ignore and too stupid to look out for their own interests. Neither is true, by the way, as the Democrats (and a lot of Republicans) discovered in November.
Why do you assume this is all lifestyle related? There are a lot of people out there who don't go to the doctor unless something hurts, particularly people without much money. You don't have to have poor health habits to get hypertension or diabetes; they just make it more likely.
My great uncle had a heart attack and drove himself forty miles to the nearest hospital, because the ambulance wasn't running that day. Shit happens.
On the other hand, when I was living in Southern California you could show up to the emergency room and wait six or seven hours to be seen on a Friday night because of all the shooting and car crash victims that skipped past you.
This. Pointy heads at NYU or some other urban college periodically come out with studies showing how much more money is spent per capita in rural areas. But what they seem to be unable to realize is that money is spent on infrastructure that ultimately benefits the urban crowd. People who live in BFE don't need a four lane highway to get from one small town to another. That highway is there for goods that go to populated areas and for people travelling between populated areas. Otherwise it would be a two-lane road without traffic control.
They believe that because that's what he's been saying. It's not impossible, either - the system is so bad right now you could only make it worse by instituting price controls.
As I recall these kinds of approaches also have problems with different cell types, i.e. a heart grown on a matrix isn't going to work very well without arteries.
I don't think the fact that you start with an existing heart is a very big deal. As I understand it most donated hearts can't be transplanted for one reason or another and could be used if this technique was made to work.
Yeah, it really is solely about retro hipsterism. Cassette tapes were a big improvement over reel-to-reel players, but they're crap compared to what we have today.

Quite literally, Hillary isn't being inaugurated because she's not as smart as Trump when it comes to security.
That's exactly the purpose of all these filings.

Sure, but a Canadian urban center only has two streets and a moose.

Math fail. If 100% of the population had a college degree there is nobody to not have a college degree.
Well, the article was about monetary compensation.
Beyond that, having a credential only gives you an advantage in the job market if other people don't have it. It should be obvious if 100% of the population had college degrees total compensation wouldn't go up one penny, and your degree would be completely worthless.
That's probably true. Must be nice to have enough money to roll with the punches no matter what kind of damage you inflict on the country.
Only someone who's financially comfortable could even think this.
Yeah, yeah, anyone who disagrees with you is a nutjob. All 100 million plus. Have you ever stepped back and listened to yourself?
Demonstrably untrue.
No, it is not true, and you had better understand that if you ever want to see a Democrat in the White House again.
True, though it will work out better for them than the alternative.

This is why you get Trump.
I was wondering about that too. Maybe rural people live long enough to die of lifestyle diseases because they don't have to deal with urban violence.

Sazae-san has almost 7500 episodes. I think 1000 episodes only gets you into the late '70s.
IMO the best anime have just two or three seasons. They tell a story and finish it.
Yeah, it makes no sense. But he's a musician, not an accountant.
